Can from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is juicy fruity hops, tropical fruits, citrus, some weedy dankness, grapefruit, mango. Flavour is light sweet and moderate bitter. Body is light but not weak at all. Amazing substance at this low abv, typical juicy Cloudwater hop aroma, very tasty.

Can shared. Hazy yellow golden with super fluffy big white head. Mango, fresh citrus notes, pineapple, soft dry grains, light dough and oats too. Lots of nice fresh juicy hops here! Light sweet and about medium bitter. Over light bodied with dry finish. Nice!

0.44 l can from 'Ace Drinks', canned in December 2017. Hazy, golden amber with a massive, fluffy, quickly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity and slightly grassy aroma of pineapple, passion fruit and some lemon peel. Slightly sweet, moderately dry, quite fruity and a bit grassy taste of pineapple, passion fruit, lemon peel and some grass, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly dry finish. Thin body, quite effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Damn tasty for that abv, not too dry or watery, highly refreshing.

Can from the Real Ale Classroom, Stoneygate, Leicester. Golden and hazy with minimal head. Pineapple, coconut, grapefruit and dried banana in the aroma. The Vic Secret hops give the scent a touch of sweet spiciness. Sweet taste but not overly so, with a light bitterness near the end. More tropical fruit with brioche in the aftertaste. Lightly carbonated. Quite good, especially in light of the ABV.
